Reilly Loveland

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning about the need for clean cookstoves in low-income countries.

I will take a walk for 60 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

I will see if my family is eligible for the Energy Saver Kit from Energy Trust. If we are, I will replace 4 lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

Using one of the links below, I will calculate my ecological footprint and talk with my family or classmates about ways we can reduce our negative environmental impact.

I will participate in a virtual Earth Day event.

I will enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will spend at least 15 minute(s) learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during Youth Climate Ecochallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

I will start or tend a garden at my home, whether in my yard or in containers on a porch or windowsill.

I will organize a virtual Earth Day event for my school or community.

I will spend at least 60 minute(s) touring (virtually or in person) a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or water treatment facility to learn about our local waste and waste recovery streams.
